Beta Mobile Wiki

• You can use your workspace more easily from a mobile device. Simply go to your workspace using your Blackberry or other mobile device. If you are not directed to a simple screen that looks nice on your mobile device, then type this to get to the mobile version (replace "workspace" with your workspace ID):

• The beta mobile version has been most thoroughly tested on Blackberries. If you see problems on the Blackberry or other devices, please let us know by sending email to support@socialtext.com

Bugs fixed in the Simple mode editor

• We have fixed a number of problems with the way the editor works with spaces and blank lines. We fixed bugs that caused:
• spaces removed before/after special links, breaking the links
• extra spaces inserted at the beginning of lines, breaking formatting
• line breaks removed, collapsing text onto a single line
• line breaks inserted after special links in long paragraphs
• blank lines removed between indentation levels
• You can now create whitespace-separated lists
• We fixed several problems with Preview:
• In Advanced mode, you can resume editing after Preview
• Rapidly double-clicking the Preview button no longer causes edits to be lost.
• We fixed other bugs with the Simple mode editor:
• In advanced mode, horizontal rules don't become literal dashes
• Copy/paste or drag/drop of an external link doesn't result in a bad link
• We fixed a bug that prevented changes from being saved in some cases when you navigate away from a page with unsaved changes.

Additions

• After Delete Page has been invoked, a Restore Page button is available, in case the page was inadvertently deleted.
• We have made changes to improve performance problems caused by search indexing. As a result of these changes, when you add new content, it may take a few seconds to appear in search results.
